we choose marguerite as our character for group work because marguerite is the main character of scarlet pimperl. She can represent the nboble woman in rich class. Choosing her could show the mani topic in Scalet Pimpernel.

Our group chose Dante because we had so much fun doing the Hell project so we obviously wanted to know more.

Our group is doing King Arthur. We thought it will be interesting to know about King Arthur deeper since there are many stories and rumors about him.

Our group is in charge of Sir Percy from Scarlet Pimpernel. We planned to mainly discuss social context such as French Revolution and the war between Britain and France. For the cultural piece, we have not finalized, but will be creating something that Percy enjoyed in social life such as games or artful pieces. How are you guys planning to present your project? Powerpoint or Video?

Our character is King Arthur. The reason why we chose him is because he is one of the most famous historical person and there are a lot of famous stories about him, so I thought it is easy to find his information. On the other had, I thought this is going to be a difficult point as well. So, I will try not to be confused at too much information.

My group chose Beatrice from Dante as our character. To be honest, we chose Beatrice because she wasn't the major character yet not too minor character. In this way, we won't have to research intensively in order not to contradict the story and the biography we made. I thought it would be easier than choosing the major character.
However, Beatrice was a very interesting character in that she didn't care about Dante at all, whom wrote all the romantic poems and stories for Beatrice. Even though Beatrice was such a great influence to Dante, she barely knew about him. I thought it was an interesting point. In addition, she died in young age, at 24. She died without known reason; we decided to kill her by giving a disease. Also through Beatrice we could infer about the people and noble women's lives in middle ages. Beatrice was like a mirror that introduced into the world of middle ages for us.
I will further explain about her in details on upcoming Wednesday!

My group chose King Arthur.
Actually,we wanted to be in charge of Marguerite at first because she is a woman that has different types of emotional experiences.She is portrayed as weak and scared but still she is trying to be brave because she trusts her husband and thinks he is reliable.As you know,King Arthur is a main character,so we thought it is easy to do some research.There are lots of information about him so it is kind of confusing.Also, I am worried about that if we said something wrong with him,it is quite obvious.After discussing,the ultimate answer is King Arthur.

As what Anyu said, we chose Marguerite from The Scarlet Pimpernel because I wrote about her for in-class essay two months ago (which means we already have answers for three questions), I know lots about the background at that time (thanks to AP World History), and understanding the background means it will be easy to come up with her biography.

Our character was the Green Knight from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. I thought that finding the information from that time period would be easy, but it was really difficult.
